FAULT_STATUS (D0h)
Definition: Intersil defined register. This command reports if a specific fault condition has ever been triggered. Each bit represents one
specific fault condition (listed in table below).
The meanings of bit value are defined as follows:
• Bit = 1 means this fault occurred
• Bit = 0 means this fault did not occur.
Bits [9:2] control total of 8 fault conditions. Bits [15:10] and Bits [1:0] are not used.
For more descriptions about this command and related commands, also refer to “Fault Flag Register FAULT_STATUS (D0h) and SALERT
Signal” on page 34 and Table 3 on page 41.

MEANING
Communications warning (for unsupported command, PEC error)
External over-temperature warning (NTC_PIN <450mV as default, threshold
programmable)
Input overvoltage fault (VIN_PIN >58V)
External over-temperature fault (NTC_PIN <300mV as default, threshold
programmable)
Input average overcurrent fault (IMON_PIN >2V as default, threshold
programmable)
Per phase peak overcurrent fault (ISENx >105µA)
Output undervoltage fault (FB_PIN <80% VREF_DAC as default, threshold
programmable)
Output overvoltage fault (FB_PIN >120% VREF_DAC as default, threshold
programmable)
PLLCOMP pin shorted to high potential voltages (PLLCOMP_PIN >1.7V)
PLL loop fault due to reaching minimum frequency (detect the minimum
frequency of 37kHz as typical)
